When Cam pounds the air out of the ball and misses, you gotta get that rebound. Awful possession, but not rebounding hurts there.

Feels like I'm in some sort of weird fever dream where the Knicks and Pacers are playing an ECF game in NY and the Pacers are getting all the calls.

Pascal Siakam is banging KAT around. Fun matchup to focus on.

Total BS.

Fouled on end...no call. Gave him weak 4th on other end.

Hate this ref BS.


Bro... he's not. They're calling anything someone touches Brunson.


Nope.

They've been physical as hell with Brunson.

Which is cool.

But allow it back.

If it's SGA vs Brunson in the finals, ABC/ESPN needs a flop-o-meter. I guarantee atleast 30 a game.

Bad, bad foul by Nesmith here. His 3rd too.

not much of a foul but that box out was offensive enough to give him one


He even looked back to see where Obi was and still let it happen :lol: :lol:

Pacers right where they want to be going into the 4th to potentially pull off a demoralizing steal of game 1.

Nesmith should have swung the rock to TJ. I know McConnell isn't a three point shooter, but dude was wide open.
